EMF (electromagnetic force) is an environmental issue that can affect health.

Studies have confirmed that there is no doubt that alternating electric and magnetic fields can give measurable biological effects.

EMF has an effect on the immune system, central nervous systems, cell growth, foetal abnormalities and can effect the production of melatonin the anti cancer hormone.

Millions of people everyday face an increased risk of cancer, depression and other degenerative diseases from exposure to fields from power lines and sub stations, electrical appliances like microwaves and televisions and mobile phones. Some people begin to react quite badly to electrical exposure, especially when using computers, mobile phones and fluorescent lights if this condition isn't addressed promptly then the sensitivity can get worse and worse.
